    Part life-coach, part Machiavelli, part Yoda, Balthasar Gracian [1601-1658], a Jesuit priest, wrote this collection of pithy sayings four centuries ago. Gracian speaks to the twenty-first century as well as the seventeenth. It's only a matter of time before someone markets Gracian's life advice to busy executives, like Sun Tzu or the Book of Five Rings (if it hasn't been already). In the meantime, Gracian can be our little secret.

Growing Thyself...what does it mean?

To grow oneself is to stretch and reach for enlightenment (i.e. personal and infallible peace and harmony).  There are many ways that this objective can be achieved, however, this blog is different in that I'm only interested in practical methods of self-growth that work.  One way that I promote in achieving this end is organic gardening.  To "Grow Thyself", not only means taking responsibility for your own emotional wellbeing, but also, to take responsibility for ones own security (i.e. food, shelter and clothing).  The following 2 minute video gives a brief overview of what it means to "grow thyself", but also to "grow yourself" by means of providing your own food. The process of organic gardening connects one with the earth...our home and our womb.  By regaining synchronization with this aspect of human existence, we make great strides toward enlightenment.  Enjoy!
